This book presents a visionary leadership framework and its application toward delivering superior value in health. It provides a road map on how to create shared vision, assess vision–reality gap, identify paths to pursue, inspire, and empower stakeholders, and utilize results-based management to deliver superior value.

By linking leadership and management in health rather than juxtaposing them, the book argues that the task of every health professional requires a mix of leadership and management, although their relative emphasis may vary as per the context and content of the health program. The book will equip health professionals to not only improve personal performance but also enhance the value that their health programs will generate for their beneficiaries.

Annexure 1: Major Strands of Thoughts on Leadership

Index

Having worked in the health field, especially in HIV and AIDS, in Cambodia for more than 30 years, I have seen the strong impact leadership can have on all levels of the health-care system, from village clinics to district hospitals to ministry of health offices. Leadership involves passion and commitment, and the desire to do the right things. I congratulate Professor Satia and his co-authors’ for developing this book and bringing it to our attention.

There is an acute deficit of management in public health in developing world. Within management development, leadership training is further neglected. This book based on Professor Satia and his co-authors’ extensive research and experience in management as well as leadership training for health program managers and NGO leaders will definitely fill this leadership chasm in health in developing world. I am sure it will become a valued guide to all aspiring health leaders.
